Save Your Eyes (By Dr. Walter F. Kimball of Missouri State Board of Optometry) Children have ,jmany eye throubles ! but the ones that parents, and espe1 cially teachers in the schools are apt to deal with most frequently are cross-eyes, short-sightedness, and the so-called granulated lids. Except for virulent infections, such as the eye infections of the new-born, and in some countries, smallpox of the eyes, there is no more fruitful source of blindness of one eye than the condition called strabismus, or cross-eyes. The fact that the crossed eye may lose its sight seems littl^l thought of by tha patient or the parents. Strabismus usually develops between the ages of two and five years and its development is often preceded by some children's disease, such as I measles, mumps, or whooping cough. Children may be born cross-eyed. Once the only remedy for strabismus ; was the knife. More often than not the knife remedy caused the eyes to turn out as much as they had previously "turned in." The loss of vis, ion was as great. > Today. optometry knows and ; prove.- daily that the pliant muscles i of the young can be strengthened, and cross-eyes straightened without resorting to the knife.
